Torn shoulder ligament?!


Question: Torn shoulder ligament?
4 days ago i was tackling someone and i sort of felt my shoulder come out, but then go back in. It hurt a lot at that time but now it seems to be getting better. I have way more range of mobility in my shoulder. I went to the doctor and nothing is wrong with the bone. He suggested an MRI to see if any ligaments are torn. I don't know if I should go since everyday my shoulder seems to be getting better. What is the best thing to do in my situation?

You suffered a rotator cuff injury. At a young age, these injuries can heal fairly quickly, but you are now more susceptible to another rotator cuff injury. If - and when - that happens , You can ask your Dr. for a steroid / anti - inflammatory shot that will go directly into all 4 of the tendon heads. (It's not painful, but generally costs around $40. a shot.)

Long - time screaming hardcore bodybuilder. Ex - Title Holder X 2. Had / have this injury on a continous basis. You play hard -- you pay the price. ALL bodybuilders and football players have nagging & persistent injuries. It's part of the game.

the doctor told you what to do already
